EDITORS COMMENTS
In this color lithograph, we witness a historic moment as Tsar Alexander I of Russia pays his respects to the tomb of Frederick the Great at Potsdam. The scene is filled with regal figures, including King Frederick William III and Queen Louise of Prussia, who stand beside the Russian leader. The image captures a significant event that took place on November 5th, 1805. It symbolizes an alliance between these powerful nations during a time of great turmoil - the Napoleonic Wars. As they gather around the crypt housing Frederick's sarcophagus, their presence signifies not only respect for the deceased king but also their commitment to each other's friendship and support. Dressed in military uniforms befitting their positions, these royals exude strength and authority. Their visit to Potsdam serves as a reminder of Germany's rich history and its importance within Europe. The solemnity of the occasion is palpable as they stand before one of Prussia's most revered rulers. This print from Carl Rochling beautifully encapsulates this historical moment in vivid detail. It allows us to glimpse into a bygone era when alliances were forged amidst war and political upheaval. Through this image, we are reminded of the enduring power of friendship and unity in times of adversity.
